The Witty Committee™️

This week a hot new bombshell enters the barracks: Henry and Teddy are both off to war and it’s only a matter of time before the Holland sisters find themselves at battle too. Back stateside, a prince makes Penelope an offer she can’t refuse. But will she lose more than just her slippers on her way? And Carolina’s forgetting our number one rule: there’s always more blackmail in the banana stand. 

Three men and a baby—what could be worse? For Elizabeth and Diana, that would mean a trip to Florida with the Schoonmakers. Rather than enjoy their old-timey bathing costumes Henry and Teddy make some big decisions.

“Be careful what you wish for, you just might get it.” That advice goes for New York’s elite and your podcast hosts this week, as Rumors offers a lot more caviar than we could chew. Will we hear wedding bells or sleigh bells this Christmas? Maybe both, if we’re unlucky.

We're back in Manhattan this season, only a hundred years earlier. In the opulent days of the late 19th century, New York society rules all. Elizabeth Holland is the catch of the season, although her heart may be kept by another. Everything changes when Elizabeth enters the enclave of wealth to find that life might not be what it seems. Can she lock down her man and keep her family safe and s...

It's book ten, and although it may only be February, the Waverly Owls have gone to nest. In this episode, we tie up loose ends faster than a professional present wrapper with what might be our least satisfying ending yet. 

While it might be chilly at Waverly in winter, this book was as tepid as can be. With the amount of rehashed plots, we almost feel as though we have read this book before. Jenny falls for the new Dean's son, whose hot sister is busy corrupting Tinsley and leading her off the road to happiness with Julian. Can our main characters find their course, or will they end up lost in the woods?

After a wild Thanksgiving break, the Waverly Owls are ready to return to their roosts. With finals looming, Heath devises a devious plan to spice up the annual Secret Santa. While most students are busy getting dirty and flirty, Jenny is fending off her admirers once again, although this time its freshman film students. Will she come out on top like the rest of the popular crowd, or will she end u...

It's almost Turkey Day and that can only mean one thing: teenage debauchery? At least that's what the author attempts in this book. Will Jenny learn after her 19th heartbreak? Will Callie learn that it might be easy to be alone? Outside Manhattan, Brett embraces her Jersey girl roots, all while Brandon finally gets it on. There might not be any Sage in his bed, but I am sure there's...

I said brrrrr, it's cold in here! There must be a new ice queen in the atmosphere! Or at least there seems to be one at Waverly.  Trouncing Tinsley once again, Jenny has unceremoniously stolen the title of Waverly Queen Bee. Jenny is busy being popular, too busy to notice that Callie is working through her Easy withdrawal at rehab/prison camp? While this might be our biggest departure from th...

Fire! Jealousy! Drama! Or not? In what may have been the most boring book yet, Jenny's life is going up Tinsley's "well orchestrated" flames. Can she escape the blaze, or will she feel the burn?

“It” couples are so last book. Now it’s all about two girl/one kegger. Will annoying Elizabeth die in that fire? We hope she takes Tinsley down with her. 

What do you get when you combine The Breakfast Club and Sleepover? The best It Girl book so far, apparently. Join Jenny and her girl gang as they drink warm beer from half-kegs and have revelations about cheating.

The Bitch is Back at Waverly Academy: after a brief stint making a documentary in South Africa, Tinsley Carmichael has returned and is ready to rule with an iron fist—and a platinum card. She sets her sights on Jenny’s bed and Brett’s man and will stop short of nothing to get what she wants. Will Jenny be sleeping with the enemy on a cot or with the fishes tonight?

Boarding school. Preppy sports. Hazing. A mysterious bad boy. A sophomore transfer girl. It’s not deja vu, it’s Jenny Humphrey reinventing herself as…someone who says “jeepers,” it seems?

Royal fever is at an all time high, with Will & Kate newly wed, and Netflix's  The Crown  only a few short years from premier. It is understandable, then, that Mia must wed. But to whom? And can she make it up the alter, or will her father's foibles foil her plan? Season 6 ends in a party, just like every book in almost each season!

We are slowly making our way through Mia's backlogs of diaries. This episode, Mia rehashes old plots and new lies. She tackles the most import life question of "where will I go to college?" Which we all know is so important (not!) There's a graduation, an election, and many gifts are given, even precious ones. Hint hint. It is the end of an era.

Every princess wants her knight in shining armor, but Mia’s true love might just save her in flaming poly blend. Alliances shift and conspiracies build in this epic penultimate book. Will Genovia survive? Will Mia? 

Michael is prepared to protect the One Ring with his life in this book. Or at least that is what Mia would like to think. In a very convoluted metaphor where the Ring is Mia's...... v-card, we guess? Michael betrays Mia in a way that might end them forever. Can they do long distance, or will this be the straw that breaks the robots back?

Mia is 16 going on jailbait in this chronologically correct novella. While this book may not be entirely worth a read, there are a few key points worth learning. Will Lilly sour her relationship with too much affection? And will Mia be forced on MTV against her will? 

We’re racing through the school year due to a clerical error on our part, much like Mia’s crucial budget issues as Student Body President. Can a short story about corn and a musical about hair save the day? What we will say is that we will have a lot to say.

It's the start of Sophomore year at AEHS, but not much has changed. Mia is still head over heels for Michael, Lilly is still being a brat, and Tina and Boris are still going strong. Boris may be hotter, and Michael may be in college now, but high school is just as boring as ever. That is, until Lilly's plan for conquering the school takes over Mia's life. This book has it all, vanda...

We're continuing season 6 with The Princess Diaries Volume V, Princess in Pink by Meg Cabot.

It's Christmas break in Genovia, but you wouldn't know it. Between obsessing over calling Michael and obsessing over not calling Michael, Mia hardly has time for her royal duties. Can you stay awake long enough to make it to the end of the book? It might be worth it.

Roses are red, Mia's face is too. By the end of this book, she may have a new boo. If teenage love is your thing, boy is this episode for you....

New York City is known for its parades: Thanksgiving, Pride, even Halloween. But when the holiday and a hot date with a secret admirer clash with Mia’s previous royal engagement, she has to decide: King Kong or bridesmaid? Join us as we shiver with antici…pation
